• Ran an administration during which the total national debt – not total annual budget deficit – was almost zero.
• Was a true war hero, having led the US to victory as a general in the Battle of New Orleans.
• Oversaw the mass expansion of the US westward.
• Provided leadership for this country by taking on the Central Bank of the US.
• Was instrumental in the development of the modern US two-party political system.

If we had a leader like President Jackson in the White House today, the world would be a much better place. 

Sure, I know what you are all thinking:  "But President Jackson already served two terms!"  Yes, that is true, but having checked with our constitutional experts, the feeling is that because Jackson was president before the enactment of the 22nd Amendment, his terms don’t count against his limit – therefore, he has not lost his Presidential eligibility.

Yes, many of you believe Jackson to be dead. While there may be some truth to that rumor, we believe the  complete inability  of the current 110th Congress to deal with the present economic crisis is an indication that many of them are “brain-dead.” (Recall we have a standing offer to all members of Congress to take our basic econ course - on the house.  So far, we've had no Congressional volunteer.)    So that  - even if the rumor of Jackson’s death were true - that still wouldn’t mean he couldn’t perform his duties and provide the necessary leadership this county is lacking.

Now as far as a running mate...when we first spoke with Jackson about this idea, he thought that brash Governor of Alaska might do the trick – a dead guy and a woman would surely grab the media attention. Unfortunately for us, she’s already on a ticket. So, our latest thought is that we keep the woman theme, and try for those 18 million disenfranchised Clinton voters by inviting Hillary to join our ticket….it's just crazy enough to work.
 
So on election day, don’t vote for Obama, don’t vote for McCain – cast your write-in vote for Andrew Jackson and let’s get our country back! Go Old Hickory!

Happy electioneering,

Don
